Hello. With salicylic acid few warts won't go fully as it won't remove the deeper part of wart. So wen ur immunity level goes down, chances there to get it back. suggested: To remove it with Radio frequency cautery and should start taking medicine to improve ur immunity against the virus. Thank you
